Summary

A prototype of a free piston Vuillemier heat pump (FPVM) was designed and fabricated in order to study the basic FPVM performance characteristics during self-excited vibration. The FPVM has a cooling capacity of 3.2 kilowatts and a cooling COP of 0.6 during self-excited vibration. The performance characteristics of the FPVM when a hot and a cold displacer were, and were not, connected by a spring were examined and discussed.
